Nothing different than what you had planned?

You can't see who bought and who sold but pretty much any data provider will give you time and sales (price and quantity).

The aforementioned link doesn't deal at all with counterparty identification -- only an obscure way to "track" orders that wouldn't really be practical anyway -- and if one were really concerned, then why not just route elsewhere or cancel/replace the order rather than mod it.
